Wonderful image. Looks a little dark but I would bet it's my crappy monitor at work. I have fixed this thing three times for the company.

It is indeed under exposed. I could brighten up a bit, but for some reason, I like the way it looks under exposed.

I like it exposed like this too because of the wide contrast between the darker clothing and the bright/goldish lace. Plus there are bright spots on her nose which if the total exposure is taken up might get blown out a bit (which can counter by lowering highlights).

This would be the bees neez if it was a just a bit brighter.

Great lighting. I think the blacks might be a bit too dark though. It creates a bit of an unpleasant contrast in my opinion.

Love the contrast of the subject and the background.

I disagree with others about the shadows btw. I wouldnt mind if the nlacks of the trees were taken back a little, but I think the blacks on her should remain the same

Sublime.

I love the darkness. It's beautiful just the way it is. I generally am drawn to darker images rather than perfectly exposed portraits or light and airy style. I follow a few wedding photographers that purposefully underexposed and their images are stunning

So am I, which is why, not always but mostly, I leave my camera at -2/3.
